Communication and language are fundamental to human behaviour, how we perceive the world, and how we interact with one another. By studying Psychology and Language Sciences, you will gain a valuable perspective and education that opens up a wide variety of further study and career destinations.
The Psychology and Language Sciences BSc is a three-year course, accredited by the British Psychological Society, that develops students’ knowledge and expertise in psychology, language sciences, linguistics, and communication. We also offer a four-year integrated Master’s course which includes a workplace applied or research placement.
Year 2 students have the option to complete a weekly observational placement with children in an early years’ setting as part of the Development of Communication and Cognition module.
